2-2
4-Wire Electrical System
This range is manufactured with the ground
connected to the cabinet. The ground must be
revised so that the green grounding wire of the
4-wire power supply cord is connected to the
cabinet (refer to the “4-wire Electrical Connec-
tion” section).
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
(Not used for Canadian
Installations)
This range can be connected directly to the
fused disconnect, or circuit breaker box, through
flexible, armored, or nonmetallic sheathed,
copper cable with a grounding wire. Allow two
to three feet of slack in the line so that it can be
moved if servicing is ever necessary.
A U.L.-listed conduit connector must be pro-
vided at each end of the power supply cable at
the range, and at the junction box.
Depending on the electrical supply, make the
4-wire or the 3-wire connection to the range,
following the instructions under the “Power
Supply Cord Connection,” (page 2-3), or the
“Direct Wire Connection” (page 2-5).
Remove the terminal block cover located on
the back of the range.
When a 4-wire receptacle of NEMA type 14-
50R is used, a matching U.L.-listed, 4-wire,
250-volt, 40-ampere range power supply cord
(pigtail) must be used.
This cord contains four copper conductors with
ring terminals at the appliance end, terminated
in a NEMA type 14-50P plug on the supply end.
The fourth (grounding) conductor must be iden-
tified by a green or green/yellow cover, and the
neutral conductor by a white cover. The cord
should be type SRD, or SRDT, with a U.L.-
listed strain relief, and be at least four
feet long.
The minimum conductor sizes for the copper
4-wire power cord are:
(2) #8 conductors
(1) #10 white neutral
(1) #8 green grounding
3-Wire Electrical System
Local codes may permit the use of a U.L.-
listed, 250-volt, 40-ampere range power sup-
ply cord (pigtail). This cord contains three # 10
copper wires, and matches a three-wire recep-
tacle of NEMA Type 10-50R.
Connectors on the appliance end must be
provided at the point the power supply cord
enters the appliance.
